Security Issues

A HTTP authentication credentials leak via the a "Referrer" was discovered by George Staikos
in Konqueror. If the HTTP authentication credentials were part of the URL they would be possibly sent
in the referer header to a 3rd party web site.
Read the detailed advisory. KDE 3.1.3 and newer
are not vulnerable.

Some Linux/UNIX OS vendors have kindly provided binary packages of
KDE 3.1.2 for some versions of their distribution, and in other cases
community volunteers have done so.
Some of these binary packages are available for free download from KDE's
download.kde.org.
Additional binary packages, as well as updates to the packages now
available, may become available over the coming weeks.
